Down day

One of the things I have learned about vacations is that every once in a while, one needs to take a day to relax with no agenda.  Today was such a day.

I wandered into town and poked around the old part of town, finding where the locals go for all kinds of everyday stuff -- chef's knives and religious icons in one store, the department bazaar with everything from toys to linens to wooden boxes to jewellery to clothes, to kitchen gadgets, to..... you get the picture.  There was the factory that makes cookies and the local speciality honey and cinnamon cake.

We had dinner at the restaurant rated #1 on Trip Advisor -- La Vacha Negra -- an Argentinian steakhouse.  The mixed grill we ordered was probably the best plate of beef I have ever had at a restaurant.  Wonderful!

And on a little stroll, we saw growing, that unusual green fruit we had sampled earlier this week!  Monstera Deliciosa.
